On 08/08/2024 9:25 AM, Licensing Program Analyst(s) Christina Watts and Karecca Sykes conducted an Case Management Inspection at the Lynn Center. LPA's met with Program Coordinator Alexis Damian and explained the purpose of today's visit. During today's inspection, there were 16 preschool children in care with 13 staff. Program Coordinator stated there are 25 preschool children enrolled. All staff caring and supervising children have Criminal Record Clearance.

LPAs are following up on a self reported Unusual Incident. On 07/18/2024 around 9:10 AM, C1 was coming with P1 into the hallway of facility to drop off C1. S1 met P1 and C1 at the door. P1 was assisting C1 into the facility when S1 grabbed C1 by the wrist and arm. P1 said to S1 they did not have to grab C1 like that. P1 then walked C1 to their classroom. S1 was apologetic to P1 and walk behind P1 and C1 into the classroom. P1 asked to speak with S2. P1 said to S2 how they did not appreciate S1 grabbing C1 and not to allow C1 near S1. S2 assured P1 that S1 will not care and supervise C1. Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, all children regardless of age, cannot have their personal rights violated which includes grabbing a child by their arm or wrist to escort or assist them inside a facility or classroom. The incident above is a violation of California Code of Regulations, Title 22.
